CHAMPI

Male · Young · 2 years

CHAMPI was rescued from a municipal dog shelter. As far as we know, CHAMPI and many other small dogs like him were taken from a warehouse, where they lived in deplorable conditions. CHAMPI is quite shy at first contact, but just needs some time to gain confidence. He is sweet and very gentle. He is social with other dogs, and in a home filled with love and patience, he will certainly thrive. The presence of another social dog would be an advantage, as he loves canine company. CHAMPI will be delivered vaccinated, dewormed, spayed/neutered, and with a microchip.

O Champi foi resgatado de um canil municipal. Do que sabemos, o Champi e muitos outros pequenos podengos como ele foram retirados de um acumulador, onde viviam em condições lastimáveis. O Champi é bastante tímido no primeiro contacto, mas só precisa de algum tempo para ganhar confiança. É doce e muito meigo. É sociável com outros cães e, num lar com amor e paciência, irá certamente florescer. A presença de outro cão sociável seria uma mais-valia, pois adora a companhia canina. O Champi será entregue vacinado, desparasitado, esterilizado e com microchip.

About CHAMPI

What life with CHAMPI looks like

CHAMPI is a small young adult dog waiting at O Cantinho da Milu in Lisbon.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇵🇹Adopting from Portugal

Portuguese rescues coordinate extensively with European rescue networks for cross-border placements, especially for galgos and podencos. Sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID are standard. Adoption fees typically cover the full vet workup.

Frequently asked

Adopting CHAMPI, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about CHAMPI?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. O Cantinho da Milu handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw CHAMPI on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt CHAMPI if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — O Cantinho da Milu will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is CHAMPI already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if CHAMPI isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with O Cantinho da Milu early rather than rehoming privately; they know CHAMPI and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (PT). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
